I have a 30-06 argentine mauser and just started reloading. I have fired off hundreds of factory loads and never had a problem. I bought a LEE loader and DIE set and started reloading. The first reloaded bullet chambered would not allow me to close the bolt. The bullet got stuck in the chamber and had to bang it out. I measured the bullet with verniers and everything was in spec. The only difference I saw was the measurement of the diameter below the shoulder was @.003 larger than the factory load. I have ordered a headspace gauge from Midway to check that. I tried putting dykem on the bullet to see if it would leave a mark. None were noted. Is there something I should know about a mauser 30-06 chamber
